I've been dying to visit Potipot again ever since N, a few friends and I went there almost three years ago. For me, it was the most beautiful "nearby" (6 hour drive) beach I've ever seen. The perfect opportunity to return to the island came when one of my best friends, Camille, who now resides in Canada, told us that she was coming home for a visit. I immediately planned the trip with my high school friends.
Potipot back in 2007
It took us a gruesome 6 hours to get to the resort. I felt so sorry for N because he had to endure 6 hours of non stop yapping and girl talk while driving. I haven't seen Camille in 5 years!
Okay. Potipot island. Where do I start? I guess you can say I was a bit disappointed. It looked so different. It was still beautiful but not as majestic as before. There were tons of people, huts and pay bathrooms. Maybe it was just the timing... *shrug*
Potipot now. We found a secluded spot so I didn't get to take a photo of the crowd.
If it weren't for the company, I'd still be ranting about how different the beach looked. But I was just too happy. I got to be with my friends again.
We spent hours talking about high school. We reminisced about old friends, crushes, and misadventures. Oh and no trip is complete without Guesstures. I missed my high school barkada. I hate growing up.
Our little trio. Me, Camille and Anna (who looks like she's about to give birth). I'll miss this when Camille goes back to Canada. =(
I wish Camille and Anna could go to Coron with me, but that seems like a long shot because the flights are ridiculously expensive already. When I get back from Coron, I'll only have a few days left with Camille. Maybe minus 2 days because I just KNOW I'll be overtiming at work dammit. Hmmm... Wonder what else we could do... Suggestions?
